We could have traded it to for a first & second round next year i reckon. Somebody would have been desperate to get their hands on that pick.What’s awesome though?
we can’t offload it for picks this year in your example as they get eaten up anyway
so the only option is for picks in 22....
Which defeats the purpose because we wanted young players on the list right away
not in 2 years time

Isn't a club in the league who would trade pick 1 for Brodie Grundy.Goldstein is very old and North have a war chest, Grundy would be a perfect replacement, hell I've gone crazy and I'm gonna throw in big Cox too. Does that get us Horne and Daics?
Who’s first and second?
and teams would know theyd have us over A barrel knowing we need to offload it...makes it even more dangerous game to play.
We wanted players there and then not 2 years down the road

The barrel may exist for players as they nominate one club and if the club wants to trade them they've got no other suitors. There would be no shortage of suitors for pick 2.
But how does that solve our problem for having players with two years development already under their belt compared to waiting 2 years to get them?
Thought I’d throw in a Hail MaryYou had me until your last sentence. Bewildered from there on.
I hope Hine is scouring the players recruited in 2018/19, who with limited VFL over last 2 years may have slipped under the radar and been “prematurely” delisted.
I think lack of VFL in the last 2 years may offer great opportunity for astute recruiters.

Hine hasn't got a great record when it comes to trading in the blokes he was really keen on in their draft year - Corrie, Karnesis to name two. Aish.I hope Hine is scouring the players recruited in 2018/19, who with limited VFL over last 2 years may have slipped under the radar and been “prematurely” delisted.

He’s up against it, there’s probably 16 ahead of him from the same draft that will struggle also.You're not the only one who has suggested it, but it is bewildering that a bloke who missed the main and rookie draft could be viewed as a potential top 20 ND pick based on 3 games as an overager in the TAC cup, where he had low stats.
Pick 2 & then trade it for something awesome. Still can't understand why we didn't know it would be top 6 pick. GWS knew that's for sure.
We misused Aish. Might be handy playing in the centre for us now.Hine hasn't got a great record when it comes to trading in the blokes he was really keen on in their draft year - Corrie, Karnesis to name two. Aish.
Aish is a competent role player, but I don't think any team with Aish playing in the centre square is going to go very far.We misused Aish. Might be handy playing in the centre for us now.
GW has a good eye to trade in opposition players. Thought that was one of his strengths at the Hawks early days.
And we paid too much for him.Aish is a competent role player, but I don't think any team with Aish playing in the centre square is going to go very far.
Bewildered or enchanted?You had me until your last sentence. Bewildered from there on.
And stability off field.Great day for GWS with pick 2 in their pocket bought for peanuts. Rounds off the disaster of the last 12 months.
Hopefully thats the end of it. Nick D in and then some higher end talent in 2022 will be the real start of the rebuild. Hopefully we can nail it. Will need a lot of astute decisions to get this list back to a challenging level.
You should be banned from this forum for good. I mean how dare you come in here with a calm head, logic and a hopeful future. How dare you! Shame on you.Lots of arguing. We were bound to have a sh*t year. It's now over. Next time we play we will have Nick Daicos, and an extra 12 months into kids who held their head up high this year. Richmond also didn't win. Not all is lost. Im hoping we target a couple of 20 to 24 year old Smokey's with Trades and look forward to is climbing again next year!
Surely Wright can chip in. He has the points on the board.Hine hasn't got a great record when it comes to trading in the blokes he was really keen on in their draft year - Corrie, Karnesis to name two. Aish.
If we could trade Sier, Cox, WHE, Lynch & Cox and end up with 2 picks between 25 - 30, I wouldn’t hate it.
If we are going to bottom out, let’s do it properly.
Well, at least we're going into this year's trade period with very low expectations...
